We are transparent about how and when we use AI. We use AI as a tool to support and accelerate our work in ways consistent with our news judgment and ethical standards. This means using AI to suggest related content, to translate between languages, or to sift through pages of documents or thousands of images. Whatever the task, we recognize this is a new and imperfect technology — meaning accuracy cannot be assumed and verification is critical. Visuals hold a critical role in helping audiences understand the news. We will not employ AI to generate images, video or visual works that purport to represent reality without disclosing its use. We believe in the value of our intellectual property and will protect the integrity of our work wherever it is used, in settings old and new.
